What is Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation, also known as augmentation mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that enhances the size and shape of a woman’s breasts. At Newsense Clinic in Dubai, breast augmentation is performed using high-quality implants or fat transfer methods, tailored to meet the individual’s desires and body type. This procedure not only increases breast size but also can correct asymmetry and restore volume lost after weight reduction or pregnancy, ensuring a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing figure.
What are the indications for Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure aimed at enhancing the size and shape of the breasts. It’s one of the most common cosmetic surgeries worldwide. Here are the main indications for why breast augmentation might be performed, both from a medical and cosmetic perspective:
Cosmetic Reasons
- Enhancing Size and Shape: Many individuals seek breast augmentation to increase the size of naturally small breasts or to restore breast volume that may have been lost due to weight loss, pregnancy, or aging.
- Improving Symmetry: Breasts often naturally vary in size or shape. Augmentation can help achieve symmetry where one breast is noticeably smaller than the other.
- Aesthetic Preferences: Some individuals may desire a specific breast contour that aligns with their personal aesthetic goals or cultural beauty standards.
- Youthful Appearance: As aging occurs, the breasts can lose their elasticity and sag. While a breast lift is often the appropriate procedure for lifting the breasts, augmentation can also be combined to give a fuller appearance.
Medical Reasons
- Reconstruction After Mastectomy: Breast augmentation is a critical component of breast reconstruction after the removal of a breast due to cancer or other diseases. This can help restore the natural silhouette of the breast and significantly impact psychological recovery.
- Correction of Congenital Defects: Some individuals are born with congenital defects that affect the development of the chest wall and breasts, such as Poland syndrome or tuberous breast deformity. Augmentation can be part of a treatment plan to correct these anomalies.
- Post-Trauma Reconstruction: Following traumatic injury to the chest, which may result in loss of breast tissue, augmentation can be employed to restore appearance and symmetry.
What is the procedure for Breast Augmentation at Newsense Clinic?
At Newsense Clinic in Dubai, the procedure for breast augmentation is designed to be safe, efficient, and tailored to meet the specific needs and expectations of each patient. Here is a detailed overview of the typical procedure process:
- Initial Consultation
- Patient Assessment: The first step is a thorough consultation where the surgeon assesses the patient’s health, discusses their aesthetic goals, and explains the options available. This includes choosing the type of implants (silicone or saline), their shape, size, and the placement method that best suits the patient’s body type and desired outcome.
- Medical Evaluation: Detailed medical history and a physical examination are conducted to ensure the patient is a suitable candidate for surgery.
- Discussion of Expectations and Risks: The surgeon explains the potential risks and outcomes of the surgery to ensure the patient has realistic expectations and informed consent.
- Preoperative Preparation
- Medical Tests: Routine tests such as blood work and, in some cases, mammograms are performed to ensure safety during surgery.
- Guidelines: Patients receive specific instructions on preparing for surgery, including guidelines on eating, drinking, and medications or supplements to avoid before surgery.
- The Surgery
- Anesthesia: Breast augmentation is typically performed under general anesthesia, ensuring the patient is comfortable and pain-free throughout the procedure.
- Incision: The surgeon makes incisions in inconspicuous areas to minimize visible scarring. Common incision sites include under the breast fold, around the nipple, or under the arm.
- Implant Placement: The implant can be placed either under the pectoral muscle (submuscular) or directly behind the breast tissue, over the pectoral muscle (subglandular) depending on the desired outcome and the individual’s anatomy.
- Closure: Incisions are closed with layered sutures in the breast tissue and with sutures, skin adhesive, or surgical tape to close the skin.
- Postoperative Care
- Recovery: Immediately after surgery, there is a recovery period where patients are monitored. Pain management and antibiotics to prevent infection are typically prescribed.
- Follow-Up Visits: Patients are required to return for follow-up visits to monitor their recovery and the condition of the implants. This includes checking for proper healing of incisions and the position of the implants.
- Post-Surgery Instructions: Detailed instructions on caring for the breasts, medications to apply or take orally to aid healing and reduce the risk of infection, and when to follow up with the surgeon are provided.
- Long-Term Care and Monitoring
- Regular Examinations: Routine check-ups are recommended to assess the condition of the implants and breast health.
- Awareness of Changes: Patients are advised on how to self-examine their breasts for any changes and when to contact their surgeon.
